- Pickup
- The most common starting point for DAT projects. Brand teams in Germany, France, the Netherlands, the Nordics and the UK pickup the EU framework as the baseline and add country-level adjustments where the rules diverge.
- Format mix
- Bottle and doypack lead. Sachet ranges are growing inside daily-routine and travel positioning. Pet-format projects ship from the same EU pool with species-specific reviews.
- Regulatory frame
- applicable claims framework plus the authorised list in applicable claims framework govern claim wording. Notification scope and label rules diverge per member state — Germany, France and the Netherlands each carry country-specific notification routes that are reviewed inside the project.
